Eli and Samuel had gone to bed, Samuel heard a voice calling him. He supposed that it was Eli, and he ran to him and said, “Here am I.” But Eli had not called him. Samuel went back to bed and again he heard the voice. Once more he ran to Eli, but Eli had not called him. Samuel went back to bed, and again he heard the voice. He ran to Eli and said, “ Here am I, for thou didst call me.” Then Eli knew that it must have been God who was calling Samuel. So he said to Samuel, “ Go, lie down; and it shall be, if he call thee, that thou shalt say, Speak, Lord, for thy servant heareth.” So Samuel did as Eli told him, and it was God who was calling him and who had something important to tell him.- And this is how Samuel learned to listen to God; and this is why, when he grew up, he was a brave and powerful leader. God speaks to us, too. He speaks to our hearts, but we cannot hear unless we are listening to His voice. AUGUST 27, 1933 SAUL 1 S amuel , C hapters 9 to 11 and 15 Lesson T ext: 1 Sam. 15:13-26.
